Ski Holidays in Engelberg, Switzerland

Engelberg is a true winter wonderland with the season lasting from October until May. With 14 winter walking trails, 30km of cross-country trails, snow bikes and snowmobiles at SnowXPark, and the fun Titlis Glacier Park there is something for everyone.

The resort has two separate ski areas. Titlis is perfect for intermediates while competent skiers will find many off-piste areas easily accessible from the lifts. Beginners will be happier in the Brunni area on the opposite side of the valley, which also offers night skiing every Friday until 9pm. The resort has over 80km of pistes in total with the longest measuring 12km and taking in 2,000m of descent. Even non-skiers must take the revolving Rotair Titlis gondola over the glacier for the fantastic views.

Children’s facilities are excellent and for those who have had enough of their skis, they can always slide down the fantastic 3.5km toboggan run or use rubber tubes on the “Wet’n Wild” snow amusement park. Other attractions in Engelberg include a 25m indoor swimming pool, and the famous revolving cable car.

Engelberg is only an hour and a half from Zürich so makes an easy destination for a long weekend.

We stayed at the Hotel Terrace during the Feb half term 2006. Fantastic value for money, excellent food, and I am very fussy about hotel food. There were great Après ski snacks and refreshments which were all part of the all inclusive deal. Friends travelling with us had a 10 year old beginner who had a ball in the ski school. It finishes each day at 2.30pm so we were able to ski all morning, have a lunch in the sun on the mountain before collecting him. If only all ski resorts offered the same for the usual ski school price. Apparently the ski school lunches were v good. Midweek it rained so we took the little mountain railway down to Lucerne for the day and did the sights and cake shops!

Thank you again Iglu for being so user friendly and more importantly thank you to Laura for being such an asset to your company and the sales profession."
